Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua Confirmed: Date, Venue, Odds & How to Watch

Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua is finally happening. After more than a decade of stop-start talks, the fight has been confirmed for Friday, 11 December at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, with Saudi matchmaker Turki Alalshikh announcing the deal on Thursday.
The all-British heavyweight showdown will stream live on Netflix at no extra cost to subscribers, with the main event ring walks expected in the early hours of Saturday morning UK time to suit the American audience watching on Friday night.
Wales beat off competition from Wembley and a proposed Madison Square Garden date to land the fight, after Joshua's camp pushed hard to keep the bout on home soil.
Both men return to the ring off wins earlier this year. Fury, 37, beat Arslanbek Makhmudov on points in April on his comeback from a fifth retirement, and followed it up with a stoppage of Mariusz Wach in July.
Joshua, 36, stopped Jake Paul in December 2025 and beat Kristian Prenga in July, a win that effectively locked in this fight.

Why It's Taken This Long
Fury and Joshua have circled each other for more than ten years, going back to when both were rising prospects on the British heavyweight scene.
A deal was reportedly agreed as far back as 2021, only to collapse over contractual and purse disagreements.
Talks resurfaced this year once Fury ended his latest retirement and both fighters worked their way through tune-up fights.
Negotiations then stalled again over the venue, with Fury's side pushing for a bigger-money US date while Joshua and promoter Eddie Hearn held out for a fight on British soil.
Cardiff's Principality Stadium, which holds more than 74,000 fans, ultimately won out once the Welsh Government cleared the way for the stadium's usual curfew to be lifted for the late finish.
How to Watch Fury vs Joshua
The fight will stream exclusively on Netflix, included for existing subscribers with no pay-per-view charge. UK Netflix membership starts at £7.99 a month.
Given the late finish needed to satisfy the US broadcast window, the main event is expected to begin in the early hours of Saturday, 12 December UK time, with the undercard running through Friday evening.
